автор, я пожаловался на это видео (жестокие или отталкивающие сцены) так как меня чуть удар не хватил когда я увидел как бьют новую теслу и чуть не умер от зависти :((( author, I complained about this video (brutal or repulsive scenes) because I was a little pissed when I saw how they beat the new tesla and almost died of envy: (((
Of course the BMW did well in the first test. It didn't even cancel out all of it's velocity with the collision. It skidded off and had its door peal off in the process before continuing to move forward.
You mean it redirected the force instead of making the full force of the impact be felt by the driver? It's a safer impact. What comes after that is where more testing applies. Personally I prefer the bmw.
It was also just the plastic outer door skin that pealed off. I think it bounced off due to the carbon plastic reinforced tube. Much safer result, as it didn’t have to absorb the impact. Also, on the frontal, the windscreen didn’t even break, showing no deformation of the structure.
It’s the move to make EVs that _”stand out”_ because the marketing wanks figure that’s what people want... which is wrong as the i3 is a frelling *_hideous_* monstrosity.
BMW fossil fuel sedans are beautiful. i3 is horrible looking. It's also horrible driving. i3 has thin tires and tippy, bouncy suspension. i3 drives nothing like a proper BMW. BMW makes excellent cars, however i3 is very bad. BMW is a fantastic company. i3 is poor.
Did nobody mention that they jacked up the ratings for safety? I would also like to mention that after this crash tests, Tesla took the negative feedback and made it so that their cars would still remain at a 5 star safety rating in every category, including sub categories.
Cam Byers the Tesla model S is the safest car in the world with a 5.4 out of 5 stars. No, that was no a typo. 5.4. The tesla model X is the safest SUV in the world and the 2nd safest car in the world. I don’t know about you but Tesla seems to be on a roll.
so just claim the other two cars are better without showing their crash tests? also why is auto-braking assumed to be safe? i have it on my car and it's extremely dangerous, often braking in situations it has mis-understood to be dangerous (sharp bends and lane-changing of both my car and others into my lane, for example) and put my car and its occupants in harm's way.
I feel the comment about the advanced safety system being an addon is very misleading... The feature is not available on the newer Teslas as the software is not ready (being released this week). All cars ship with the hardware and will have the features even if you don't order the auto pilot feature. Also, the older autopilot cars (AP1) do have this feature and they recently revealed that on its software release for those cars accidents involving the air bags dropped by 40%.
I would choose the BMW I3 because the Tesla had the driver hit the steering wheel hard through the airbag. Tesla needs to strengthen the seatbelts on the model s.
In order to earn a rating for 2017, you can pretty much only test 2016 models since 2017 are not yet available, hence the title. Esp. if you are releasing said video early in the year....
ck m The title says ''Vs 2017 tesla model S'', mislead people that thinks that the quality right now are like this, and in the original video they raised the test level for a higher standard, so that was obviously impossible for the company to predict them, in that old model that was tested shown in the video.
kor'vre because like a lot of model year cars bmw started production and sales of their 2017 model in 2016. Tesla only sells their cars to represent the year that they are made. Cheers.
Hmm I wonder if Toyota had any influence on the statements. What did the Prius look like after the overlap test? Bet is was less safe than the carbon body i3
HairlessHare They test the previous years' models for the safety certification, not entirely sure how it works or why so you'll have to refer to someone else but that's how they do it
Working at Tesla, not being overly biased, the car structural rigidity is stupidly insane. As soon as you hit the battery pack, most of the oncoming force is stopped there. There was two people who flipped down a 500ft cliff, and you can see how strong the mid section cabin is which was untouched and they both walked away without a bone fracture. The car is that safe (plus you have 4.8k lbs in your favor).
The second impact on the Tesla small overlap was scary and unsafe. I can't wait to see the new seatbelt design. This car did very badly in the small offset test.
Hhmm, so an organization funded by insurance companies (e.g. zero interest in the results) is biased? How does that work? Also, how do you expect a test run in early 2017 or late 2016 to test a 2017 car?
Then they should not have said that it was a 2017. I'm a Tesla shareholder and I don't like people badmouthing my company. Because I don't like insurance companies. Because Tesla threatens their future profits. Because if Donald can say anything that comes to his pea brain, so can I. Because I don't trust YOU.
if you do tests for everything on the market in 2017 then of course they are going to be done in 2016... I have no idea how you would assume anything else. maybe it should have said "Crash test for 2017 line up of e-cars" or something like that for those unfamiliar with how the kind of thing works... I dunno. They are not trying to mislead, they are just used to doing things a certain way.
Boi they say 2017 because this is the most up-to-date car and it's the car that they're making in 2017. And although you have shares in the company, that doesn't mean that it's your company. You have no control over any of the actions or decisions they make. Your stupidity is astounding and very amusing.
nambinhvu Idk, maybe it's just what they had in stock? I doubt it would've made a difference what color the vehicle was, but your guess is as good as mine
Did you seen in the lateral impact on the i3 the amount of glass which went straight to the drivers face :0??. That must cause some serious injuries in real life
I have a question, for the front passenger's airbag, there is a dashboard in from of the right. So what happen when the airbag deploys?? Won't the dashboard fly right off to the face of the passenger?? 🤔
What people love about Tesla is they take these seriously. Improvements aren't made year to year but ASAP. There is a video where a guy. Bought 2 model 3's same year but months apart and shows the differences. Not to mention you can tweet the CEO and get a response. That approach is what is industry shattering.
Also, a guy and his passenger tumbled down a 500 ft cliff and they both walked away with no more than bruises. Tesla is always quick to fix anything it can. They don't really crash in the first place anyway. I don't care if Teslas cause cancer either way. The only thing I want more than a Tesla is 2 Teslas, or the Dragon 2 capsule.
Even though the Tesla is the 2016 model and i3 is 2017. There is no excuse for the Tesla seat belt problem. It should have been found in the crash test before it was released
SO how did the the model s got the highest rated safety number (5.4) which isnt possible because it only goes up to 5 stars. And break the test equipment with 4g, and the dummy's inside still intact. They had to re-evaluate the new test just for tesla. Edit so did the model X Both from NHTSA
As much as it hurts being a Tesla fan boy I do love when I see a no bias video. :) I can't wait to by a model 3. If Tesla Model S is heavy and does almost good then the more light weight Model 3 will pass with flying colors.
Edmund I think in the original video they raised the test level for a higher standard that previously didnt have, so that was obviously impossible for the company to predict them in that old model, that was tested shown in the video.
Did anyone notice that, given concrete visual evident in this video, that anyone riding on a Tesla Model S is highly unlikely to suffer from fatal injuries in this particular type of car crash? Good job, Tesla. I appreciate your efforts.
Tesla and BMW could very easily apply a hard brake as soon as the car hits a frontal collision. Most of the car is electronic anyway. Both their tires were still spinning, propelling the car forward towards the crash!
Мне кажется, боковой удар БМВ держит лучше, потому что пассажир и водитель ударяются головой об подушки, а в Тесла задний пассажир - об внутренний корпус салона. Голова мимо проходит подушку (не задевает подушку). 02:10 (Тесла) и 02:29 (БМВ).
Sandal Basotra yea but that telsa isn’t even the 2017 one it doesn’t even have auto pilot. If it was the 2017 telsa it will prevent that from happening
Doughy_ De doggo How much of an idiot are you? They don’t let the cars just avoid it that would literally ruin the whole point of a “crash” test! Seriously are you six?
It's clearly designed to deatach on crash. Probably much safer that way, because of less chance of shattering. Either way, I have no idea why you think that solid door glass would slice someones head, it's not sharp at all.
@@niter43 Car glass is laminated so that when it does smash it is safe and nobody will get cut, but still a huge pane of glass travelling at 40mph will slice someone horrifically. Wow Tesla fanboys really know nothing about cars
@@calj2405 >Car glass is laminated or tempered. In many countries only windshield is required to be laminated. >huge pane of glass travelling at 40mph will slice someone horrifically How something without sharp edges is going to slice anyone? And how did you come up with 40mph?
I own a Volt Prius and a Tesla (no i3), but come on....No discussion about the obvious effects of having a 700 lbs chunk of aluminum engine block crush your legs in the Volt or Prius?
